Patent application EP1318064A2 discloses a kind of modular design of bearing support, and this bearing support comprises front-end module, intermediate module and rear module, and each module has the supporting member of two extensions.Two of each module are extended supporting member by anachomata, catachomata and some netted connection structure assemblings.But this connection structure brings the extra demand of not expecting can for manufacturing and assembling aspect.
  
Summary of the invention
The application's a purpose provides a kind of commercial vehicle/comm..vehicle chassis, and it has modular design along the vehicle longitudinal axis, and this modular design can reduce the requirement of making and assembling and have the characteristics of high rigidity and low weight.
Aforementioned purpose can be achieved by the feature of claim 1, especially, the bearing assembly of each sub-assemblies has the moulding sheet metal component separately, and this moulding sheet metal component has formed the sidewall of the vertical side in chassis, wherein, the moulding sheet metal component is whole piece along the height of corresponding sidewall.
All sub-assemblies on chassis have smooth sidewall, are formed by corresponding moulding sheet metal component respectively.This moulding sheet metal component extends to whole piece at separately longitudinal component along the height on chassis, namely this moulding sheet metal component along the vehicle vertical axis without interruptedly extending.Therefore, do not arrange on the vertical direction moulding sheet metal component is divided into anachomata and catachomata.Each sub-assemblies has this holistic sidewall that is, and namely the whole height along the chassis arranges sidewall.Accordingly, each sidewall extends along the vehicle longitudinal axis and vertical direction (namely along the vehicle vertical axis) substantially.When assemble chassis, each sidewall on two vertical sides on chassis is the surface of basic continous.The moulding sheet metal component that forms sidewall is preferably by the iron and steel manufacturing, and thickness is usually between 1.5 millimeters to 2.5 millimeters.
The application chassis can reduce the requirement of manufacturing and assembling aspect.The moulding sheet metal component that consists of bearing assembly can adopt single forming process to make, and in this case, the spatial accommodation of some integrated forms also can further be set so that different vehicle components to be installed.Especially, do not need to make bearing assembly for different anachomatas, catachomata and mutual netted connection structure thereof are installed.Can reduce matching requirements by selecting in detail screw to connect.Can interconnect to be assembled into the chassis by the sub-assemblies that matching parts will be made in advance, for example, for various possible chassis heights or width, can realize by changing employed assembly individuality.The moulding sheet metal component can adopt the part with same design to a certain extent.
The holistic sidewall that is that whole height extends along the chassis in vertical direction helps to realize high bending stiffness and torsional stiffness.The moulding sheet metal component that consists of sidewall can design thinlyyer, thereby can help to realize reducing weight.When adopting mixed system as described below, alleviating of weight can be fairly obvious, be welded to each other between above-mentioned sheet metal component in this mixed system and part forms enclosed construction, and multifunctional element is connected to bearing assembly, specifically will be in hereinafter describing.The minimizing of weight will improve the economy of fuel, increase commercial income.
At last, smooth sidewall also can be auto parts and components guard space is provided, and for example, protection is in the oil tank of vehicle of the differential gap on chassis.
The a plurality of of the application preferred embodiment relate in the dependent claims, and will be explained hereinafter.
Preferably, can not be connected to each other between the sub-assemblies on chassis with getting loose.Especially, be welded to each other between the sub-assemblies.For example, consist of between the moulding sheet metal component of bearing assembly of different sub-assemblies and be welded to one another.The chassis that can realize having extra high bending stiffness and torsional stiffness this moment.Simultaneously, even can further reduce matching requirements.Adopt welding also can further reduce weight between sub-assemblies.
If the bearing assembly of different sub-assemblies is interconnected in chassis certain section on vertically, vertically cross-sectional plane of section is relatively greater than the cross-sectional plane of other section at this for bearing assembly, and this is with advantageous particularly.In other words, the chassis this vertically section should have the place that interconnects of bearing assembly, at this vertically in the section, bearing assembly is in extension in the plane normal of the vehicle longitudinal axis greater than other the vertically extension on the section on the chassis.Especially, when bearing assembly this vertical section on the chassis was connected to each other, the chassis was maximum at cross-sectional plane of this vertical section.Therefore, the junction between the bearing assembly can be many especially, and this helps to increase the rigidity of junction, thereby increase the stability of overall package.
